“And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.

And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.”

Luke 2:8-10, 20 ESV

All,

This stands out because Luke says, “the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen”. What started out as great fear ended in “glorifying and praising God” for being a part of God’s purpose. God wants us to experience great Joy, but it could be hidden in a great challenge that requires faith in Him. Please pray that we and our friends accept His purpose in those challenges and have Faith in Him throughout. Please pray for Hunter and David’s group.
